Cake Tips

1. Where these cakes use wholemeal flour, white flour may be used instead (providing it is self raising where stated).

2. If a normal cake recipe is vegan apart from using eggs you can make it using vegan egg replacement powder instead. This is available from most health food shops.

3. You can decorate any cake using 'butter' Icing: beat 3 oz (85g) vegan margarine with 6 oz (170g) sieved icing sugar and 1/2 tsp vanilla essence until thick and creamy.
